    Fault studies are an important part of electrical power system analysis. The purpose of this study was to determine the amount of line current at the point of disturbance when a three-phase balanced fault occurs in the real Sulbagsel electrical system. In this paper, a new hybrid FFA-ABC (Fruit Fly Algorithm-Artificial Bee Colony) method is proposed, which is one of the new methods used to calculate balanced three-phase short circuit currents in electric power systems, especially in the real Sulbagsel electrical system of South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The real electricity system of Sulbagsel was chosen as the research object because this system consists of 15 generators, 44 buses, 52 transmission lines, and 29 load buses with system voltages varying from 30 kV, 70 kV, 150 kV, and 275 kV so that this system is included in the complex system category. To test the effectiveness of the proposed FFA-ABC method, it was implemented on a real electric power system, namely the Sulbagsel System.  In addition, it can also be applied to IEEE electrical systems or other real electric power systems. The results of the new hybrid FFA-ABC method of the balanced short circuit analysis of the Sulbagsel electrical system are then compared using the FFA method, the ABC method, and the deterministic method (in this case, the bus impedance matrix (BIM) method). The simulation results obtained show that the FFA-ABC hybrid method is able to solve the problem of balanced short circuit analysis in the Sulbagsel electrical system in South Sulawesi, Indonesia which the largest fault current occurs when the fault is close to the slack bus generator (bus 2=Sidrap) of 18.9697 p.u, and the smallest fault current occurs when the fault is farthest from the slack bus generator (bus 44=Poso) of  0.8457 p.u

    This research is research and development (R&D) which aims to produce an official letter management information system, a supporting system for calculating remuneration performance point recapitulation at Makassar State University. Application testing uses ISO/IEC 25010. This study uses the Waterfall development model consisting of five work steps, namely analyzing needs, conducting design, coding, testing and maintenance. The developed system is validated by two system experts, and two content or material experts. The data were collected using questionnaires, interviews and documentation as supporting data for the development of information systems. Data processing uses qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis techniques. The test results prove that the official letter management information system that has been built meets ISO/IEC 25010 testing standards with the results of testing the functionality suitability aspect in the very decent category. Aspects of performance efficiency with good criteria, aspects of usability with very good category, security aspects obtained level 1 security is at low level criteria with sufficient information. Achievements in the reliability aspect have met Telcordia's testing standards. The maintainability aspect has met three Land testing standards. The compatibility aspect is very feasible and the portability aspect is in the very good category

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    This study aims to design automatic school bell hardware based on the ATmega32 microcontroller, design automatic school bell software based on the ATmega32 microcontroller using Basic programming language, and test the performance of the automatic school bell based on the ATmega32 microcontroller. This automatic school bell uses a minimum system of ATmega32 microcontrollers which equipped with data input from the push button, LCD to display character output, ISD2560 to output sound, and a timer taken from DS1307 RTC. This research is a Research or Development (R & D) research. This research is carried out through two stages of design. The first stage is the stage of hardware design. The second stage is the stage of software design. Programs are made using the Basic programming language using the Bascom-AVR application. The results of the product were tested using the black box method with two stages. In the first stage, software testing uses a series of simulations on the Proteus 7 Professional application. The second stage, testing hardware

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
